Reliable Pet Care You Can Trust!

Pet care experience

With 14 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I bring genuine passion to every pet I work with. I've had a lifelong love for animals knowing I wanted to be a veterinarian since I was just 5 years old! And as a recent pre-veterinary science graduate from Lees-McRae College, I'm actively pursuing my dream while providing care for your pets. I understand the unique needs of all types of pets, from playful puppies to independent cats. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets, as I'm currently caring for my own elderly dog and cat. I'm also experienced in administering various medications, whether oral, topical, or injection. Having cared for pets with chronic conditions, I'm comfortable following medication schedules and handling special medical needs. I'd also love to meet you and your pet with a free meet-and-greet session before we start regular care. This gives us a chance to discuss your pet's routine, preferences, and any special needs they might have. It also helps your pet get comfortable with me, making future visits less stressful for everyone!

Scott was amazing with boomer! And it was a last minute booing and she was super flexible. Really appreciate the personal care and playfulness with my four legged son. She wore him out! Thank you so much Scout. Will def book your services again!

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet like family, ensuring they're comfortable and happy in their environment. I will follow your care instructions precisely and provide regular updates with photos during each visit if wanted! I offer a free meet-and-greet session before starting regular care, where we can discuss specialized needs, routines, and preferences and most importantly, make sure I'm the best fit for your pet!

Information Scout B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about your pet's medications, special care needs, and daily routines before our first session. Understanding their dietary restrictions, energy level, and any behavioral considerations also helps me create a comfortable experience tailored just for them. Knowing your pet's personality is especially helpful (whether they're independent or social, high-energy or more laid-back). Also, little details like their favorite toys, preferred walking spots, and any training commands they respond to help me plan activities that will keep your pet engaged and happy! Don't worry if you can't think of everything right away, as I like to cover all these questions during our complimentary meet-and-greet session before starting regular care!

A typical day

For active dogs, I love to walk at local parks and trails, enjoying fresh air and new scents! I mix physical exercise with mental stimulation through interactive games. For senior pets or those with mobility issues, I like to offer less demanding activities, comforting care, and plenty of affection tailored to their preferences and abilities. But most importantly I like to always tailor activities to your pet's energy level and preferences to make sure your pet stays happy, engaged, and well-exercised throughout our time together. So, whether your pet needs restful quiet time indoors, energetic walks, or active play sessions, I always like to adapt to their unique preferences. Every pet has their own personality and energy level, and I'm committed to providing care that perfectly matches their individual needs.
